Best for: A track-focused supersport that thrives on canyon roads and circuit days, blending 600-class agility with 1000-class-adjacent grunt.
Built for: The legendary middleweight that punches above its class: light, flickable and thrilling, with a screaming inline-four and razor-sharp handling.
Not ideal for: Not for beginners, comfort-seekers, two-up touring or relaxed commuting; anyone wanting upright ergonomics or off-road ability should look elsewhere.
